Gumboots (with Boyoyo Boys) Lyrics
I was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown
Rearranging my position
On this friend of mine who hadA little bit of a breakdown
I said breakdowns come
And breakdowns go
So what are you going to do about itThat's what I'd like to know
You don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldIt was in the early morning hours
When I fell into a phone call
Believing I had supernatural powers
I slammed into a brick wallI said hey, is this my problem?
Is this my fault?
If that's the way it's going to be
I'm going to call the whole thing to a haltYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you could
You don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldI was walking down the street
When I thought I heard this voice say
Say, ain't we walking down the same street together
On the very same dayI said hey Senorita that's astute
I said why don't we get together
And call ourselves an instituteYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you could
You don't feel you could love me
But I feel you could - I was having this discussion in a taxi heading downtown
